Game Blog: Spurs @ Pacers - Jan. 7

I'm seeing better defense, but no rebounding. and our offense is suckish.

[Creation88]

8-2 pacers on offensive boards
29 to 18 shots Pacers

[timtonymanu]

in Ford.

And Jesus Hill. ty play there.

[Spurs Brazil]

TJ Ford always hit a bunch of shots against us

[mystargtr34]

Bonner is actually a better defender than Blair by quite a margin.. he just negates all of that by not rebounding since his hands dont extend above his head when he stretches out.

you know we can only do one per game, right?

[Fireball]

George Hill hits a non-corner three ... but his energy is missing on both ends

[ElNono]

I'm seeing better defense, but no rebounding. and our offense is suckish.

I see more intensity... but I also see the Pacers being a sucky team that doesn't take advantage of the second chances... if this is the Celts/Mavs, we're in a hole right now.

Seems like it's either Defense or Offense clicking, but never both.

[CFH]

Neal hits a 3 but it's negated because of a 3 second call on Blair

[Fireball]

Teams really seem to have adapted to our offense ... less open 3 pointers for Neal and Bonner in every game ...

[Creation88]

bonner go over the ing screen, jeez you have no lateral movement

[CFH]

Neal jumper after Hill misses both free throws

[Budkin]

And they turn around and hit a 3 off the turnover.

Pop is on crack...Blair on Hibbert? Idiot. And all this while Splitter rots away on the bench...

[timtonymanu]

We're having trouble rebounding and Pop goes small.

[CFH]

Hill J

True, but if we played with this intensity on the defensive end against Boston the other night Allen might not have had 31 points and we could've won. imo. If we play better offense and rebound more we will beat this team by double digits. Even if this is a sucky pacers team playing good defense can give us some defensive confidence. if that makes sense

[CFH]

Hill again!

[Creation88]

this line up is garbage on D. wtf pop

[Spurs Brazil]

Yes Hill!!!!!!

[crc21209]

Hibbert again...surprise....not.

[timtonymanu]

Blair is all kinds of fail in this game.

[Spurs Brazil]

Blair can't guard Hibbert. Sit him

[Budkin]

I really thought we'd come out on fire... guess it's gonna be another down to the wire game.
